The Morning Show Renewed for Season 5 Before Season 4 Even Airs: AppleTV+ Just Couldn’t Wait

Most shows have to fight tooth and nail for another season. But The Morning Show? It casually waltzed into a fifth season before season four even dropped. Apple TV Plus clearly knows it has a hit on its hands and is not about to let its Emmy-winning, star-packed newsroom drama go anywhere.

So what’s going on behind the scenes of this surprise renewal? And why should you care if the media chaos of The Morning Show continues for yet another season? Don’t worry. We’ve got all the caffeinated drama right here.

The Morning Show Renewed for Season 5

In a rare and bold move, Apple TV Plus announced the season five renewal before season four’s premiere, The TV Cave can confirm. That’s confidence, folks. The streaming platform is doubling down on one of its most high-profile originals, starring executive producers Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston.

Matt Cherniss, head of programming at Apple TV Plus, had nothing but glowing things to say. He called the show a “standout from the very start” and praised its ability to entertain while digging deep into messy real-world issues. Translation: Apple’s still obsessed with it and so are we.

Season Four Drops September 17 and It’s Bringing the Heat

The fourth season of The Morning Show premieres globally on Wednesday, September 17, 2025, and it’s already looking juicier than a celebrity scandal gone public. We’re talking deepfakes, conspiracy theories, corporate mergers and the ever-confusing battle for truth in today’s chaotic media landscape.

And oh yes, the UBA-NBN merger is complete. So now the news team not only has to report the truth — they have to figure out what the truth even is. Good luck with that.

Returning cast includes Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Billy Crudup, Jon Hamm, Greta Lee, Nicole Beharie and Mark Duplass. And if that isn’t enough A-listers for you, say hello to new cast members Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons, William Jackson Harper, Boyd Holbrook and Aaron Pierre. This show has more award winners than a prestige film festival.

Why Is The Morning Show Still Such a Big Deal?

It’s no secret that The Morning Show has been racking up nominations and wins since day one. Critics love it. Fans can’t stop watching it. And Apple keeps using it to flex its streaming muscle.

Season three alone scored 16 Emmy nominations, with Billy Crudup taking home his second win for playing the deliciously shady Cory Ellison. The show was even named one of AFI’s Top 10 TV Programs of 2023. Not bad for a series that started out as a behind-the-scenes look at breakfast television.

What makes it click? Probably the fact that it keeps evolving. From Me Too to media manipulation, The Morning Show stays timely, topical and just unhinged enough to keep things interesting.

So What Can We Expect in Season Five?

Details about season five are still hush hush, but if Apple is renewing this early, it’s a safe bet that the plot is about to go nuclear. With all these new players in the mix and the ever-shifting landscape of broadcast journalism, we expect more betrayal, more media backstabbing and definitely more Cory Ellison chaos. Please and thank you.

Apple TV Plus Bets Big on Its Crown Jewel

Let’s face it — streaming is a battlefield. Shows are getting axed left and right. But The Morning Show? It’s getting front-row treatment with champagne and a renewal before the next season even starts.

If you’re already a fan, this is your sign to buckle in for more drama. If you’ve somehow missed it, now’s your chance to binge the first three seasons, all available on Apple TV Plus. Catch up before the fourth season premieres on September 17 and become part of the noise.

Still not sold? Just watch one scene with Billy Crudup. You’ll get it.
